[Samba] permission problem samba share 2nd suse server
Dear all, I'm running a fileserver on Suse10. The purpose of this fileserver is to store only mailbackups. I also have backupserver running Suse10 with Dar&Sarab installed. backups will be done on HDD. This runs perfect. because I need to mount the samba share of the fileserver to the backupserver i did: mount -t smbfs -o username=root,password=xxx,debug=4 //ipaddress/mailbackup /mnt/servers/mailbackup This will mount the samba share on the backupserver. if I want to access the mounted share on the backupserver I can 'browse' to the first folder. After that I get a permission denied error. The permissions settings: fileserver: drwxrwx--- user.root user-mailbackup-folder -rwxrw-r-- user.root user-mailbackup-files backupserver: drwxr-xr-x-- root.root user-mailbackup-folder ? ? user-mailbackup-files (permission denied error) Because root ID is always '0' I thought this will be no problem to run Dar&Sarab and access the users-mailbackup-files on the backupserver. Apparently this is not the case, and I'm a bit stuck now. Why root can't access the user-mailbackup-files on the backupserver but CAN 'browse' user-mailbackup-folder on the backupserver? ps. Backup server is running Samba, Samba-client, Libsmbclient Any help is appreciated. Best Regards, Roland de Lepper ------------------------------

Dear all,
I'm running a fileserver on Suse10. The purpose of this fileserver is to
store only mailbackups.
I also have backupserver running Suse10 with Dar&Sarab installed. backups
will be done on HDD. This
runs perfect.
because I need to mount the samba share of the fileserver to the backupserver i
did:
mount -t smbfs -o username=root,password=xxx,debug=4 //ipaddress/mailbackup
/mnt/servers/mailbackup
This will mount the samba share on the backupserver.
if I want to access the mounted share on the backupserver I can 'browse'
to the first folder. After
that I get a permission denied error.
The permissions settings:
fileserver:
drwxrwx--- user.root user-mailbackup-folder
-rwxrw-r-- user.root user-mailbackup-files
backupserver:
drwxr-xr-x-- root.root user-mailbackup-folder
? ? user-mailbackup-files (permission denied error)
Because root ID is always '0' I thought this will be no problem to run
Dar&Sarab and access the
users-mailbackup-files on the backupserver. Apparently this is not the case, and
I'm a bit stuck
now.
Why root can't access the user-mailbackup-files on the backupserver but CAN
'browse'
user-mailbackup-folder on the backupserver?
ps. Backup server is running Samba, Samba-client, Libsmbclient
Any help is appreciated.
Best Regards,
Roland de Lepper

[Samba] permission problem samba share 2nd suse server
Sorry if my question was not compleet.
I have to use Samba because I have an AD on Windows 2003.
I'm creating a mailbackup server to store mailbackups. Because we have to
keep them a long time
(sales, logistics, finance) I'm running out of diskspace on my Windows
fileserver. We're talking
about 150GB of mailbackup. That why I've created a backupserver on Suse10
using Samba.
The goal is to create one single share which holds the mailbackups per user and
per 'public' mailbox
like logistics_eu@example.com.
That share is accessible to everybody, but access to the mailboxes is restricted
to the users
privileges. Like user steve don't have access to user george's
mailbackup folder, but will have
access to his own mailbackup folder.
This is why I can't use nsf, i think.
So I've set the permissions on the mailbackup server. Please see mail below.
I've mounted the mailbackup directory on the backupserver.
But when I want to access the mounted mailbackup dir on the backup server as
root, I don't have
access to it (Permission denied).
This sounds strange because I gave root permissions on the mailbackupserver to
the mailbackup dir.
I can access the mailbackup dir if I mount it under Windows with the permissions
I want.
Best Regards,
Roland de Lepper

Please respond to

Hi Roland,
Tell me first both the system that you are using are on linux than why
you are using samba there, use nfs :D
further seems strange to me,
Mount the same share on local system and than see if you face the same
error.
